What a great course! Great professor. Lots of excellent ideas that I can see useful in my own career. I have a business and I am just regrouping during this COVID19 pandemic. I have a vision and a passion. I am going to put some of these ideas into practice and think of my business a little differently from this point forward.

An excellent course that gives you a new outlook on the traditional Models of Business and Society and finds the connection between the two. It helps you focus on what a successful business is supposed to be and introduces the idea that Business doesn't have to be scary, but be quite comforting once thought of in the right manner

This is a validation of my feeling that businesses are major parts of building a better society. This course offered me a great insight on how it can be achieved and through the well researched, practical illustrations, and the incredible passion of the facilitator, am well positioned to speed up this process in my current role.

An incredible course. Ita has helped me to be motivated about setting up business that will change the world and make it a better place. It has shifted my vision of business, which, at the begginingof the course, what that businesses were just to make money, or that creating value for the society was a secondary result. Thanks!

One student, person, customer, employee, citizen, stakeholder can make a difference. This course covers the concepts, examples, and inspiration to learn, observe, and practice bringing social & stakeholder entrepreneurship to the world we live in. We must bring this value creation in our lives and in our business. Thank you!

O curso desenvolve sua mente para a ampla capacidade de se moldar os conceitos atuais sobre como guiar e desenvolver um negócio de maneira saudável a todos os envolvidos, incluindo comunidade e meio ambiente como fatores principais de uma escala sustentável, e como isso tem um impacto altamente positivo numa esfera global.

I met with the course content as I expected. Course content and syllabus is more helpful for getting new knowledge and enhancing new skills in business world, teaching methods is really too good and satisfied. I am fully satisfied with the flexibility of the course. Thank you Coursera for giving us this prodigious course.

In the world of capitalism based businesses. The new and sustainable models of business in society would actually give a new meaning and image about businesses and entrepreneurship . Thus is substantially makes a business to work for its meaning of value, service, solution and profits rather that working for only profits.

I am very grateful that I had the chance to take part in this course. Coming from Romania, an entrepreneur's story is not always as bright and exciting as it should be, but learning about these new models of business and focusing on social entrepreneurship gave me the courage I need to think of starting my own business.

Gives a really good insight with respect to traditional business models, perceptions of running a business and a new way to look at establishing a business. Good quality study material in terms of the tutor's interaction through video as well as reference videos linked throughout the certificate course. Recommended.

Amazing and really interesting way to motivate the generation into doing something amazing for themselves and the society as a whole. Professor Freeman is really one hell of a teacher. I have literally started thinking about the ways I can make an impact in real life and I am going to name it "The 1% Contribution"

Wonderful course, defined the purpose and it’s implications in the new business models along with Corporate strategies and ways of working like Philantrophy,social responsibility and Environment .

Impressed with content and the examples and interviews that are chosen from industry leaders

Thanks

I really enjoyed this course especially the videos in Week 4, I felt that as a student I could relate more to the topic. It was a wholesome experience and I am very inspired by all the speakers involved in the course. You could say I feel a lot of "purpose" after this course. Thank you for this amazing course.

This course has changed my perspective about business. I have come to realize that about 98% of businesses in my community still operates on the old model of businesses which is profit seeking only. Going forward, I will start advocating for stakeholder business model to MSME businesses I have contact with.

El curso brinda un panorama general sobre las tipologías de nuevos negocios, complementado con entrevistas a los actores involucrados en esta nueva narrativa empresarial que ayudan a comprender el cambio de paradigma de la generación de valor para los acciones a la generación de valor para los stakeholders.

If you actually want to make money and make the world a better place at the same time. this course is for you! To be honest i was not as enthusiastic as i am now when i started the course, but as I completed it my whole idea of business and entrepreneurship changed. Thank You. I will forever be grateful!!

Such a wonderful experience. I learned some new principles of business that we need to implement in our today's world. This course will help you to understand the different parameters that are essential for our society and business improvement. Also by hearing some successful CEO's I feel so motivated.

The course is a good reinforcement of ways in which we can engage in business while still being conscious and considerate of society and the environment. The professor is highly motivating and enthusiastic about the material. It is short and sweet, and has ideas that we MUST carry forward in our lives.

very nice course , it gives a new insight of understanding business , its economic aspect as well as social aspect, this particular course made us aware of the importance of entrepreneurship in emerging economies also how these businesses play vital role in empowering people from various strata

This Course was really amazing I learnt a lot about corporate ethics and what it means to be a good business man how thinking about society environment and shareholders developing a brand that can help everyone hope to be a good business man some day and follow the ethics of business Society

This course has given me a better perspective of the "Why" of the business purposes, have to be aligned and well communicated to all stakeholders in order to become not only a profitable business but also one that fulfills the entrepreneur vision and satisfies the customers' and society needs.

Professor Freeman really changed my perspective about how a business SHOULD and CAN operate in the real world. This new model of business will serve as an inspiration for people with strong ethics but who are unable to see how they can do business ethically in the real world. Thanks Prof.

Regarding to the course, I’m grateful to Prof. R. Edward Freeman for your kind of supporting to provide the opportunity for knowledge particularly how to consider and re-thinking about the new concept of business in society. It would be the advantage to reciprocate and emerge the mindset.

This course really broaden my knowledge about business. the professor gave me a wider point of view, where business is not all about profit, yet it is also about leadership, culture,environment, and how we engage with all of the stakeholders. Thank you so much for the brilliant insights!

A concentrated and clear description of conscious capitalism and conscious business, including the servant leadership as one of the pillars. Questions at the end of each session provide food for reflection of the world around and one's own actions towards making the world a better place.
